During the 2018/19 Championship season, Hull City experienced their lowest average crowds for a league campaign since moving to the KCOM Stadium in 2003.

A mere 12,164 fans were in attendance on average across the Tigers' 23 home matches in the Championship, with the lowest coming against Millwall during a 2-1 victory in February, witnessed by only 10,191 spectators.

The 3-0 Easter Monday Yorkshire derby defeat to Sheffield United drew in the largest support of the campaign, with 14,116 in attendance for the 3-0 defeat, although a number of those in the home end were visiting supporters who had managed to purchase tickets among the home ends of stadium. However, that number was still over 1,400 lower than last season's average attendance at City's home ground of 15,557, the previous lowest average recorded at the ground for a league season.

Much of the low attendances in recent years has been caused by the supporters' discontentment towards the Allam family who own the club, which has driven thousands of home supporters away from attending matches due to the controversial membership scheme currently in place.

This was highlighted in August, were only 4,666 supporters witnessed the Tigers bow out of the Carabao Cup's second round after losing 4-0 to Derby County.

Just 11,268 were in attendance to see Hull City beat Reading 3-1

Whilst City's average puts them towards the lower end of average crowds in the league, the likes of Aston Villa and Leeds United, who could meet in this season's play-off final, lead the way in attendances, with average crowds almost three times larger than City's.
